Understanding Random SAT: Beyond the Clauses-to-Variables Ratio
It is well known that the ratio of the number of clauses to the number of variables in a random k-SAT instance is highly correlated with the instance’s empirical hardness. We con...

A SAT-based solver for Q-ALL SAT
Although the satisfiability problem (SAT) is NP-complete, state-of-the-art solvers for SAT can solve instances that are considered to be very hard. Emerging applications demand t...

Hardness of Max 3SAT with No Mixed Clauses
We study the complexity of approximating Max NME3SAT, a variant of Max 3SAT when the instances are guaranteed to not have any mixed clauses, i.e., every clause has either all its ...

Measures of Intrinsic Hardness for Constraint Satisfaction Problem Instances
Our aim is to investigate the factors which determine the intrinsic hardness of constructing a solution to any particular constraint satisfaction problem instance, regardless of th...
